Lyrics:

Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer
That calls me from a world of care
And bids me to my Father's throne
Make all my wants and my wishes known!
In seasons of distress and grief
My soul has often found relief
And oft escaped the tempter's snare
By thy return, sweet hour of prayer
Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer
Thy wings shall my petitions bear
To Him whose truth and
Engage the waiting soul to bless
And since He bids me seek His face
Believe His truth and trust His grace
I'll cast on Him my every care
And wait for Him, sweet hour of prayer
Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer
May all thy consolation share
Till from Mount Pisgah's lofty height
I view my home and take my flight
This robe of flesh, I'll drop and rise
To seize the everlasting prize
And shout while passing through the air
'Farewell, farewell, sweet hour of prayer!'
